England v Pakistan, Melbourne 13 November 2022
In the popular global game, only a country with an equanimity mentality became the world champion of twenty-two cricket. In the England team, there were players from every cricket playing country or people from the supporting team. His team was built on neither apartheid, nor apartheid nor on nationalism. There was only ability and ability in his cricket game. Many capable, capable and sympathetic players and support teams gathered together and rode on the victory chariot of the game. Twenty-two gave new dimensions to cricket and took it to new heights. Make the cricket game brighter.
England continued their winning streak at the Melbourne ground in Australia by defeating Pakistan in the final. Twenty-two were the capable world champions of cricket. There are also players in the England team whose roots are associated with Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan and India. But everyone played diligently together and made England the world champion. The barbarism with which Butler and Hales had attacked the Indian bowlers seemed that Pakistan’s arms and legs would also be swollen.
Buttler won the toss and asked Pakistan to bat in the Melbourne final as well. England needed a chance to chase the target on the scoreboard. Pakistan also started slow but slow. But then Sam Karan delivered the first blow to Pakistan in the fifth over with his slow, wavy precision ball. Leg-spinner Adil Rashid proved to be the trump card in the match. Haris, who played a quick, high shot, was caught early. Even after this, Babar Azam and Shan Masood formed a partnership. The ball was spinning on the pitch and Rashid was in his rhythm. Rashid did a googly to Babar, which Babar played without understanding. Rashid took the catch. From here both the game and morale of Pakistan went astray. For England, there was a chance to capture Pakistan.
Pakistan could score only 137 runs. A score that looked easy was going to be tough on the Melbourne pitch. That Ben Stokes firmly stood till the end. Hit a half-century and remained unbeaten on 52. England won. Moeen Ali also supported him in scoring fast runs. Twenty-seven cricket festivities came to an end with the victory of England.
England had Rashid, India also had Yuzvendra Chahal but he was not given a chance. India has had to bear the brunt of maintaining friendship and feeding each other. India will have to change many faces. They will have to do twenty. But before that let the celebration of England take place. Let the band play.
